All Chapters of There's No Turning Back: Chapter 151 - Chapter 160

Ethel's face turned pale before she flushed. The guests standing at the sidelines snickered as if they were enjoying a good show. They had all seen how she had deliberately made things difficult for Elara. However, they didn't know if Lucas deliberately had Ethel serve Elara wine.Ethel frantically shot glances at the waitstaff, hoping they would take the hint and step forward to relieve her of the tray. She was Elara's elder. How could she possibly serve Elara?While she was feeling embarrassed, Harvey reached out and took two glasses of wine from the tray she was carrying. He handed one of them to Elara."My mother is still your mother-in-law. In a setting like this, learn some etiquette, and don't make a fool of yourself."Though he personally handed the wine to Elara, his posture remained arrogant. This was Elara's first time attending such a high-profile banquet, and her behavior did not satisfy him.When Elara looked at him, there was a bright and beautiful smile on her face

"Harvey, have you still not repaired your relationship with Ms. Jones?"The shareholders of Fisher Corp had seen how Ethel had targeted Elara and how Elara had treated Harvey. Some of the shareholders had already gone to talk some sense into Ethel."You saw Lucas and Mr. Somner personally coming down to welcome Elara. Why did you treat her that way just now?"The Fisher Corp shareholders were very baffled by Ethel's actions. One of them had even wished he could take Ethel's place and be Elara's mother-in-law himself."She was looking down on me!" Ethel thought of Elara's gaze earlier and fumed. She didn't think there was anything wrong with her attitude. On the contrary, she felt she had been the one treated unfairly."I'm her mother-in-law!""You are her former mother-in-law," a shareholder corrected her."Elara was my daughter-in-law for seven years. Isn't there a saying that mentees have to respect their mentors for life? I was her mother-in-law for seven years; she should st

Christopher shot Theodore several meaningful glances, hoping he would speak up and say a few words to help. He had wanted to ask Tobias to persuade Elara to return to Capitol University because he believed that with Elara's abilities, she would become a shining symbol of the university. However, Tobias was far too proud. He would never lower himself to persuade Elara.Theodore was seated next to Elara, his handsome face brimming with amusement. He was unblinkingly focused on Elara's profile. It was as if he couldn't get enough of staring at her.Christopher cleared his throat twice, reminding Theodore of his presence. The peerlessly handsome man lazily looked at Christopher with an icy gaze."I support Elara's decision."Elara whipped her head around, staring at him in surprise. Theodore leaned forward. He propped his face on one hand, his elbow resting on the table. In his dark eyes, only Elara's reflection remained.He tilted his head like a naive child and acted harmless

Elara heard the commotion downstairs the moment she stepped out from the Golden Amethyst Gate. Standing at a high vantage point, she looked down at the scene unfolding below, where the crowd's attention was entirely focused on one spot.Behind her, Theodore's voice suddenly rang out. "I never asked you before… What was your relationship with Dawn when she was alive?"Elara was momentarily stunned. It had been a long time since anyone had mentioned that name to her.She turned to Theodore in confusion. "Dawn and Niamh grew up together. They were like sisters, incredibly close. My relationship with Dawn wasn't very good."Dawn had given Elara a warning the first time the latter had met Dawn at her welcome home banquet at the Jones family estate. Looking back now, it was clear that Niamh must have said something to Dawn, shaping her perception and fueling her hostility toward Elara.Elara's gaze drifted toward the dazzling crystal chandelier above. Her eyes became unfocused."Befo

Harvey wanted to see shock and disbelief on Elara's face. So what if she had been invited to a high-society summit? Those industry tech leaders only wanted her for technical work.He was willing to admit that with Elara's ability to win a gold medal at the ALI Math Competition, she indeed had the skills to join a top national enterprise as a technical staff member.At most, she could become a project team leader. But that was the limit for a 27-year-old woman with no work experience!The fact that Fisher Corp generously offered her the position of CTO was purely because she had once been his woman.Harvey raised his hand, slicking back the damp strands of hair that clung to his forehead after being drenched in red wine. His sharp, chiseled features became even more imposing with his slicked-back wolf-cut hairstyle, and the last drop of wine slid down his jaw.His striking looks were so exceptional that even with red wine splashed all over him, he looked as if he had just walked of
